The three of them, who had been chatting and laughing, instantly exchanged glances.
Gang Fengxing knew it was time to show his boyfriend's strength to the family, so he immediately clenched his fists and said to Yueyue and Yang Yang, "I will definitely take good care of Brother Tiantian!"
Yueyue and Yang Yang instantly felt a sense of entrusting their child to someone else, moved by the moment.
So they warmly replied, "We trust you! Mr. Gang!"
After a bit of joking around, Yi Tiantian got into the car with everyone, heading to the private school.
Winter had quietly arrived, and people on the streets had already changed into thick cotton coats. The trees along the roadside had shed all their leaves, leaving only bare branches to brace against the cold.
Yi Tiantian and the others soon arrived at the private school located in a residential area.
This private school was situated in a villa in the suburbs, with a sign hanging symbolically at the entrance.
Yi Tiantian looked over and saw that the sign read: "School of Love and Disability."
When the staff and guests arrived, they saw a couple standing at the door of the villa, smiling and waving at them.
"Hello, welcome to our School of Love and Disability, we are very happy to meet you!"
The first to speak was a tall middle-aged man with slightly graying black hair combed neatly and a fine watch on his wrist.
"It seems this person is Principal Chen."
Yi Tiantian and the staff began to greet each other.
The principal appeared very normal, even somewhat successful-looking.
"This principal is engaged in physics research and is a renowned physics professor."
As soon as Yi Tiantian arrived, he started sharing information, and all the staff listened intently.
"You must be Mr. Yi? It's an honor to meet you."
Beside the principal was a middle-aged woman wearing a pearl necklace. She was short and plump but had a warm smile on her face.
Yi Tiantian, surprised that the woman recognized him, smiled and extended his hand to greet her.
"Hello, you must be Principal Liu!"
The woman, flattered, replied, "Yes, hello! I particularly enjoy watching your variety shows; it's truly an honor to meet you in person!"
Yi Tiantian nodded with a smile, but inside, his curiosity was piqued.
"This woman's name is Liu Ting, one of the principals here. She is responsible for the daily operations of the School of Love and Disability, and her greatest hobby is watching variety shows."
Then the principal couple greeted Gang Fengxing. After introducing themselves, they led everyone inside the private school to begin the tour.
Yi Tiantian followed the couple down the corridor lined with honor boards.
On the surface, this private school seemed quite regular, not much different from ordinary public schools.
It was well-equipped and had various facilities specifically designed to serve children with disabilities.
For example, there were many convenient passages suitable for wheelchairs, making it easier for the children to move between floors.
Since winter break had not yet begun, there were still students in the classrooms.
Passing by a classroom for disabled children, they heard the clear sounds of reading aloud.
Principal Chen, the tall middle-aged man, proudly introduced to the two guests in front of the camera.
"Our school not only admits children with disabilities but also provides a workplace for adults with disabilities."
Yi Tiantian and Gang Fengxing looked through the glass door at the podium, where they saw a teacher sitting in a wheelchair giving a lesson.
Principal Liu added, "And the salaries and benefits here are no less than those in ordinary schools. Many disabled people who struggle to find work elsewhere receive very generous treatment here."
Yi Tiantian nodded in admiration.
"These two old folks may not be nice, but they do well in this aspect."
"But don't be fooled by this; their purpose in founding this school is just to hide something!"
Gang Fengxing's initial good impression of the principal couple quickly faded.
However, the live-stream viewers, unaware of what was happening, were misled by the school's appearance and were lavishly praising the principal couple.
[Wow, they are truly angels on earth!! I have an uncle with a disability, and people often look down on him no matter what he does. I never thought there would be a place specifically providing jobs for people with disabilities!]
[These two are doing great deeds! Disabled children who succeed in the future will surely be very grateful to them!!]
[Someone, build a temple!! Such wonderful principals, I'm really moved to tears!!]
After the tour, the interview segment began.
Yi Tiantian and Gang Fengxing conducted a deep conversation with the two principals who founded the School of Love and Disability, gaining insight into their passion for this charitable cause through their chat.
Before the interview began, the school sent a teacher and a student to join the two principals for the interview.
Soon after, a boy pushing a wheelchair appeared before everyone.
The boy walked stiffly, and his smile seemed forced, almost awkward.
Seeing the representative student, Yi Tiantian's eyes lit up, recognizing a child he had met while filming a public service advertisement.
He was the child with a leg disability.
When Tongzhi saw Yi Tiantian, he jumped up in surprise and delight: "Brother Yi!"
Although Tongzhi and Yi Tiantian were not in the same group during the last promotional shoot, Yi Tiantian left a deep impression on him.
The initial anxiety and shyness of the child upon seeing someone familiar quickly vanished, and the little boy sat obediently on the chair, looking much more at ease.
[Is Yi Tiantian so well-connected that even children know him?!]
[Those who didn't watch the famous public service ad must not have seen it! That little boy is in it; they shot it together!]
[What's wrong with someone even kids like? Hehe!]
[Exactly, you can see the little boy isn't nervous anymore!]
The teacher who was wheeled in was a female teacher wearing thick glasses, giving her a scholarly air.
After the interview began, Yi Tiantian and Gang Fengxing started chatting with the four people according to the script.
Despite it being his first interview, Yi Tiantian brought a refreshing new feel to everyone.
Many people refreshed their preconceived notions about him.
Many of the staff had thought he was only suitable for entertainment variety shows, but now they realized that Yi Tiantian could handle comedy shows and interviews equally well.
Each of his questions was precise and powerful, his words gentle yet firm, and he skillfully picked up on others' cues, preventing any awkward silences.
Gang Fengxing mainly focused on setting the mood during the interview, and with the child Tongzhi's innocent remarks, the atmosphere remained warm and friendly throughout.
The audience watching the live stream also found it engaging, frequently typing "HAHAHAHA" on the screen.
The staff hadn't expected the interview to go so smoothly and were secretly rejoicing at the prospect of finishing early.
However, just as the interview was about to conclude on a light and pleasant note, Yi Tiantian, sitting in the middle, suddenly spoke his mind again.
"These two old foxes are really good at pretending, saying they built this school out of love. Pah!"
"Never believe a demon would do something outrageous just to cover up a lie!"
"The reason they built this school was to cover up what's hidden in the basement!"
"Today, in their hurry, these two principals forgot to lock the basement door tightly! But how can I get into the basement?"
The staff felt their hair stand on end. Although they knew they wouldn't be able to finish early, they were excited to witness something more interesting!
Throughout the interview, Gang Fengxing watched Yi Tiantian, who handled everything with ease, with starry eyes.
He thought there was no more perfect man in the world than his Brother Tiantian!
So after hearing Yi Tiantian's thoughts, he made a bold decision.
Gang Fengxing stood up and bowed to everyone, saying, "Sorry, I need to use the restroom."
The staff immediately understood and did not stop Gang Fengxing.
Yi Tiantian thought Gang Fengxing really needed to use the restroom, so he reassured the two principals, "We've covered all the main topics of our interview. Now I'll ask you a few individual questions."
The principals initially looked worried, but they relaxed when they heard Yi Tiantian's words.
Since Gang Fengxing had been responsible for the comedic parts, they had formed the impression of him as a handsome but somewhat dim-witted person. They didn't think he would discover their secret in the basement if he went out.
Principal Chen narrowed his eyes and looked at Yi Tiantian.
On the contrary, it was Yi Tiantian, with his meticulous speech and thinking, who might uncover the secret here.
But unfortunately, it wasn't Yi Tiantian who left, but the brainless Gang Fengxing.
So the principal couple continued to follow Yi Tiantian's lead and began recording individual interviews.
After leaving the interview room, Gang Fengxing first went to the restroom to avoid suspicion, then quickly ran to the lowest level and found the school's floor plan on the wall.
Since this private school was converted from a villa, it still had some basements at the bottom.
However, the floor plan hanging on the wall stated that the basement was used for storing cleaning tools, and unauthorized personnel were not allowed to enter.
Gang Fengxing didn't care about the rules and followed the directions on the floor plan straight to the basement.
At that moment, classes were still in session in the classrooms, so Gang Fengxing tried to keep his footsteps as quiet as possible.
Finally, his efforts paid off, and Gang Fengxing discovered the entrance to the basement at a stairwell corner.
It was a tightly locked wooden door, seemingly impossible to enter without a key.
Meanwhile, back at the interview site, the teacher and Tongzhi had finished their interviews, and it was now the turn of the two principals.
"Before we start the interview, I'd like to tell you a story."
Tongzhi, being a child, clapped happily at the mention of a story.
"Wow!! Brother Tiantian is telling a story!!"
The female teacher in the wheelchair revealed during the interview that she was also a fan of Yi Tiantian and felt very happy to hear a story from her idol.
However, the two principals were puzzled, and a sense of unease instantly washed over them.
The staff didn't know what Yi Tiantian was up to, but they chose to remain silent.
Ignoring the gazes around him, Yi Tiantian began to narrate.
"This story, strictly speaking, can't really be called a story, but you'll all understand what I mean in a moment."
Yi Tiantian looked serious and earnest, cleared her throat, and began to tell the story formally.
"Long ago, there was a little girl born into a poor family. Her family not only had very poor economic conditions but also suffered from varying degrees of mental illness. When the little girl was eight years old, she was sexually abused by her own father. From then on, her concept of family was completely shattered."
Everyone listened with great interest, and since children were present, Yi Tiantian spoke very discreetly about the specific details.
Principal Chen coughed lightly, interrupting Yi Tiantian's storytelling: "Although the little girl's fate is tragic, what exactly are you trying to say?"
Yi Tiantian looked at the middle-aged man before her, who appeared to be a decent person, and replied with a smile, "Won't you know if you keep listening?"
Principal Chen didn't expect his question to be directly countered by Yi Tiantian. He laughed awkwardly and gestured for her to continue.
"Please go on."
As he said this, Principal Chen did not notice that his wife, Principal Liu, beside him, had a frozen expression on her face.
"Alright, after several decades, the little girl has now become a middle-aged woman. She has formed her own family and has many, many children."
At this point, Yi Tiantian glanced at Principal Liu, whose facial muscles were already twitching, and noticed that she had clenched her fists tightly in front of her.
But everyone else, except for Principal Liu, seemed perfectly normal.
Principal Liu's husband, Principal Chen, even covered his mouth and yawned, seemingly uninterested in the story.
"But as mentioned earlier, due to her childhood experiences, the little girl's concept of family has become severely distorted. As a result, she doesn't know how to manage her family and instead begins to... with her husband..."
Yi Tiantian's voice was firm and resolute, and her gaze was unwavering as she looked at the couple.
Hearing this, Principal Chen finally panicked, his eyes wide with shock as he looked at his wife.
But at this moment, Principal Liu was so stiff she couldn't move.
Principal Chen, suppressing his unease, interrupted Yi Tiantian again.
"Mr. Yi, if there's nothing else, let's continue with the interview. My wife and I have an engagement to attend after today's recording, and we really don't have the time."
"He's starting to panic!"
"To prepare for today's recording, the couple set aside an entire day, so it's impossible they have any engagements!"
"Since I can't go to the basement, I'll make you confess your crimes out loud!"
The staff held their breath, extremely tense.
If their guess was correct, the couple in Yi Tiantian's story must be the principals in the room!
What did these two people do? What are they hiding under the school?
No one dared to breathe heavily, only hoping Yi Tiantian would quickly reveal the conclusion of the story.
But at this moment, Principal Liu began to stall, "Mr. Yi, although I am your fan, I feel it's necessary to remind you that this isn't a comedy show. We're here for an interview. If you don't continue with the interview, we can leave."
Principal Liu's plump face was stern, and it seemed she was about to stand up and leave at any moment.
The audience in the chat room also followed her lead.
[What is Yi Tiantian doing? I just praised him, and now he's showing his true colors!]
[Can't he just conduct the interview properly? Why start telling a story suddenly?!]
[I think we should respect the principals. They said they have an engagement later, and Yi Tiantian is being too disrespectful!]
[Celebrities are being arrogant again, using their fame to act however they want!]
"But, Principal Liu, how do you know this isn't part of the interview?"
Faced with the couple's challenge, Yi Tiantian did not back down.
"Moreover, the story I'm telling is very educational. I believe it will be enlightening for both of you. Would you like to try continuing to listen?"
The couple swallowed hard, exchanged glances, and seemed to communicate through their eyes.
In the end, they concluded that since Yi Tiantian, a celebrity, wouldn't know the school's secret, they might as well let him continue.
Seeing that the couple did not protest further, Yi Tiantian continued, "After the little girl married her husband, they had a very good relationship and had many children, about a dozen or so."
A female teacher gasped, "Isn't our country implementing family planning? How could someone have over a dozen children?!"
Yi Tiantian smiled and looked at the female teacher in the wheelchair, kindly explaining, "Yes, they did have over a dozen children, but they weren't penalized by family planning because they hid the fact that they had children!"
At this moment, large beads of sweat dripped from the foreheads of the principal couple. They could no longer hold back and stood up, shouting, "Enough! This story has nothing to do with today's interview!"
"Sorry, we don't want to continue the interview. Please all leave!"
The couple's firm attitude made the audience watching the screen sense something amiss.
[Although Yi Tiantian wasted a few minutes telling a story, do the principals need to react so strongly?]
[Don't you think these two principals seem a bit strange? It's not a big deal for a normal person to hear a story!]
[I felt the same way earlier. Yi Tiantian said the story was very educational, and these two principals seem to be hiding something!]
[Yi Tiantian has a lot of fans in the chat room. Clearly, he wasted time first, and now he's blaming others!]
Meanwhile, downstairs, Gang Fengxing discovered that the basement door was not locked.
He took a deep breath, gathered his courage, and pushed open the wooden door in front of him!
A cloud of dust hit him in the face, and Gang Fengxing couldn't help but wave his hands in front of him to clear it away.
Inside, it was pitch black, making it impossible to see what was in the basement.
But he quickly found the light switch inside.
With a "click," the pale light illuminated the entire basement.
Gang Fengxing's mouth dropped open at the sight before him.
At that moment, the principal couple was still insisting that Yi Tiantian shut up and trying to drive him and the rest of the staff away.
Principal Chen, the middle-aged man, barked, "We have the right to refuse this interview! Please leave here!"
And his wife, Principal Liu, a short and plump woman, lunged forward like a commoner, attempting to push Yi Tiantian away.
But before her fat hands could touch Yi Tiantian, Principal Liu bounced back as if repelled and fell to the ground with a painful groan.
"Ouch!"
Seeing his wife fall, Principal Chen hurriedly went to help her up.
"Wife! Are you okay, wife!"
Lying on the ground, Principal Liu could only moan in pain, unable to speak a word.
Seeing this, Principal Chen started to play the victim, saying, "Mr. Yi, I didn't expect that as a public figure, you would openly assault my wife on live stream! An entertainer of such low morals should be banned! You should be kicked out of the entertainment industry!"
After saying this, Principal Chen looked smugly at Yi Tiantian and the entire staff behind him.
He knew everything was being broadcast live, so the viewers in the chat room would surely speak up for him!
But contrary to Principal Chen's expectations, the viewers in the chat room not only failed to support him but began to defend Yi Tiantian.
[Yi Tiantian's fans are here to protect him! I watched the entire live stream, and Yi Tiantian never touched Principal Liu! Not to mention any assault...]
[Oh my God, this is like the miracle of the knife changing direction. Just now, Principal Liu seemed to fall backward on her own!]
[Are the fans in the chat room delusional? I don't believe Yi Tiantian has any special powers! You're all joking! Maybe Yi Tiantian secretly tripped Principal Chen!]
[Do you even have eyes? If you doubt it, go watch the replay and see if Yi Tiantian touched Principal Liu!]
The staff on site also stepped forward and said, "Principal, please don't make false accusations. Our cameras have recorded everything that happened just now. We know very well whether Mr. Yi assaulted Principal Liu or not!"
Hearing this, Principal Chen panicked.
But Yi Tiantian, seemingly unaffected by the antics of the couple, continued, "Although they have had over a dozen children, this doesn't mean they love them. Instead, they treat these children as toys and slaves, imprisoning them in the basement!"
Upon hearing this, Principal Liu, who had been lying on the ground wailing, stopped her cries and froze in place.
Principal Chen, meanwhile, staggered back a few steps, deflated like a punctured balloon.
Meanwhile, in the basement,
Gang Fengxing had braced himself for the worst, expecting to see something monstrous, but what he saw instead was a pile of cleaning tools!
